Issue - meetings

To consider the report of the Director of Customers and Community (copy enclosed).

The Council considered the report of the Director of Customers and Community to agree Member representation on the Coastal Community teams and arrangements for appointment to be reviewed and made in future.

The report provided background information regarding the appointment of representatives to the Blackwater Estuary and River Crouch Coastal Community Team by the Planning and Licensing Committee.  It was noted that when the Community Services Committee had previously considered the appointment of Member representation it had done so only in relation to the Blackwater Estuary Team.  The Council was therefore required to clarify the Member representation on the River Crouch Coastal Community Team.

RESOLVED

(i)        that the decision of the Community Services Committee on 18 April 2016 (Minute 1141(i) refers) is restated to relate to both the Maldon and Blackwater Estuary and River Crouch Coastal Community Teams;

(ii)       that the future review and making of appointments to the two Coastal Community Team Management Committees should rest with the Planning and Licensing Committee and the Community Services Committee at their first meetings each new Municipal Year.
